Why have a facial?

A facial can be considered a vital step towards healthy skin for both women and men. Our skin is the largest organ in the body which performs functions such as protecting from invasion by foreign substances as well as a mechanism for excretion of toxins from the body. Facials typically include a cleansing procedure, a massage, the application of a facemask and moisturising. Having a regular facial assists the circulatory system and stimulates the skin. Some argue that it may also help slow down premature aging by increasing awareness of skin care. Keeping your skin hydrated will help keep the skin moist and stop dehydration. Most of all facials are extremely relaxing and great (in combination with massage) for de-stressing.The massage, which is an important part of a facial, helps blood circulation, which in turn aids lymphatic drainage (the removal of toxins and waste from the body). A massage also relaxes the facial muscles and is very important to delay the onset of wrinkles. The application of a facemask in the end helps tone and clarifies the skin. Facemasks are also used to treat dry and acne-ridden skin.
